As someone who also suffers from depression I think it is good and helpful to encourage and support others who have the same illness, especially when they are as successful and outspoken as she is. I read her interview in Time mag. or Rolling Stone about 6 months ago and remembered it because it hit home. She is not ashamed of it and neither am I and no one else should be either. It is a real illness and should NOT be hidden. SHE feels this way or she wouldn't have said so in the article.

See below. The link was posted for Huff. Post via Rolling Stone.
